Equal time?

Tom Brady is an NFL quarterback. Being one of the top players in a high profile profession puts one under extra scrutiny. Apparently that trait also puts Brady under some obligation to defend comments made by his high profile "friend" Donald Trump.

Brady’s relationship with Trump is under fire following the real estate mogul's controversial call for a ban on Muslims entering the U.S. last week.

The New York Daily News published an article Wednesday criticizing the football star for not publicly rejecting Trump’s remarks during an interview the day before.

“The four-time Super Bowl champ turned big-time chump when he fumbled a perfect opportunity to condemn his ‘good friend’ Donald Trump’s dangerous demagoguery and racist rhetoric – scrambling instead to try to find a way out of actually endorsing his billionaire buddy,” the article said.

Say, here's a thought for you leftist NYDN scribes. The likes of TE Vernon Davis, WR Marques Colston and QB Mike Vick are active players in the NFL. All three supported President Barack Obama for reelection in 2012. Any chance you're at all intellectually curious why those players would support a man for President who is perfectly OK with a baby being pulled half way out of his/her mother's womb only to be stabbed in the back of the neck with scissors, have his/her skull crushed and brains sucked out?

Lemme know what you find out. I'm sure you're ON IT!
